FreedomWorks Statement in Response to the Confirmation of Neomi Rao to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In response to Neomi Rao’s confirmation to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, Jason Pye, FreedomWorks Vice President of Legislative Affairs, commented:

“Neomi Rao’s confirmation is a major victory for bringing the regulatory state back in line with the Constitution. Rao’s expertise in implementing and reviewing federal regulations makes her an excellent choice to succeed now Justice Brett Kavanaugh on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, the second highest court in the nation. Rao now has the opportunity to set lasting precedents that will properly curb the growth of government.”

In recent weeks, FreedomWorks grassroots activists drove over 561,600 messages to their Senators urging them to confirm Neomi Rao.
